Day care

Hey ladies!!! I haven't posted on here in awhile but i hope everyone is doing great! I have a question about day care... My son is going to be 8 months old and I've been lucky enough to be able to stay home with him this whole time, but now I am looking into getting back to work. I also start school for my rn this summer, so my LO is going to have to go into day care sooner or later... Does anyone have a LO in day care and how are your experiences, I'm so scared because of all the horror stories :(... I know they have to follow regulations and have state inspections but still I'm so afraid something will happen to my baby... Any stories will help, good or bad. Also how did you find the right day care for your LO?

We have a wonderful daycare. We take LO to a center near our house. They are fantastic and treat him like he is their son! They get him to eat veggies that I can't!There are good ones out there! Just do your homework, get referrals, ask lots of questions. Also stop in randomly, don't make an appt.

We also have a wonderful daycare. LO has been in it since 8 weeks. I shopped around for a little while chose one I felt comfortable with. Some I just had bad feelings about. After LO was born I took her to visit the teachers to make sure she got along with them. I also took her there a couple of days before I went back to work to make sure everything went ok. Her daycare sends a sheet home every night with what she ate, how much, her diaper changes and if she was wet or pooed. They also write down the time she went to sleep and woke up. I love that I can call at anytime and check to see how she's doing.

Ours is great as well, my older son started there at ten months and this one at five months. All of their teachers know both kids, I call or stop in anytime and they keep me posted if need be. They are wonderful and address all concerns immediately every time! I've been with the same (smaller) center since they opened four years ago and there's very little turnover in staff there compared to other daycares in the area (good sign), most of the staff there are certified teachers and/or going to college to teach. Stop in a few times, take a tour, try a few shorter days when you'll be home before going full time etc. good luck!

Thank you all sooo much! It really eased my mind knowing there are good day cares out there! I really like the fact that they give you a daily log of everything because I'm all about schedules and routine... :) I feel a lot better about it! I felt so guilty

I LOVE DAYCARE!!!!!! They LOVE Parker and I feel like he has so much fun with the other kids. He crawled early, is already standing on furniture, gives kisses, and says dada and hi. He can drink out of a sippy cup and refuses his paci now. I think a lot of it is because he is in a room of all older kids. I love them, I love my job, and I wouldn't have it any other way! Guilt free too!! GL mama!

I don't know if you've looked into checking out any in-home day cares? My daughter goes to an in-home day care and we all love it! The price is better than any centers around here, and she gets lots of individual attention! For us it was a great fit!
